In reply to My birthday plans, posted by tabitha on March 31, 2004, at 10:30:13

You could always invite me and I could give you my red jacket and boots to match your watch... Happy birthday!!!!! It's hard to say in this situation. I have a friend who is very similar. She is snappy to waiters, complains about the food, complains about everything. But, she's my friend and I love her dearly, even if we can't always agree on the service or where to go. So, I guess you could tell him upfront you want it to go your way? I just try to tell my friend to relax. And when she complains about waiting, I say "It hasn't been that long" or "Well, the girl is cute, so it's worth the wait" or "The food is very good" or "Well, that gives us more time to talk" So, if you go with your friend, take the opportunity to try to point the things out that perhaps your friend doesn't realize. Or ignore it. Or run out to your car and scream if you must. Or, back to plan A and invite me. I will compromise and do whatever you want. I'm not picky, promise! (And the whole time, jsut think, "At least I'm not fussy and perhaps I can create a less fussy person!" That seems to work for me. I agree though, it's sometimes frustrating. My old man won't eat with her and she asked why. I had to tell her. That was quite a conversation, let me tell you!)
